dc.description.abstract | The focus of this project was the resource efficiency
of Irish wastewater treatment plants (WWTPs). The
perspective of the report is both operational (economic) and environmental. Wastewater treatment is a
resource-intensive process, with three main resources
being identified as those of greatest concern: energy,
chemicals and water. | en_IE |
